Also, what happens when CoSo gets big enough to attract news companies like, say, NPR (yay!) or FOX (superboo!). Do we let them share whatever they want? Do we tag non-human broadcast accounts as such? If so, do we have a “switch” in settings to allow us to automatically hide these non-human accounts?

@InvaderGzim

Ahh but Thoughts of a Dog and WeRates are humorous entertainment accounts. Not the same as Wendy’s which is trying to sell hamburgers by being witty. Totally not the same. I would absolutely embrace Thoughts of a Dog and WeRates. All give and no take. I’m just not a fan (instablock) of all take no give.

Yeah, that was my question: should we as a community welcome broadcasty brands here or not? My experience (all broadcasty brands blocked immediately) will differ from those who have a “live and let live” philosophy. Their CoSo experience will absolutely change as more brands start to broadcast here. I felt like we have an “only human” rule here but I don’t know how far that goes, which is why I polled my favorite audience of sentient NPCs. 😹

David Sedaris talks about how mice will try to roll purloined cheese/food across the floor to their holes in the middle of the night. He likes the idea of them having a little pathway. But his house in Normandy is super old.

Right, absolutely, but due to CoSo’s size, they aren’t going to be prioritizing CoSo for that level of support. @Autumn has almost 20,000 followers over on IG. When she asks a question of a brand, she gets a little more attention than the average person. I’m not sure I want CoSo to be that sort of site. When -I- see brands here, I block them.

And just to clarify, in my mind, a “brand” is something like Wendy’s or Bob’s BBQ Shack.

I’m okay with authors (I am an author) as long as they present as humans. Same goes with crafty people. Broadcast monsters get blocked.

I know I have no say in this (and I as necessary) but…do we want brands here on CoSo?

Time to put the tampon in. 🙀

Also, time to check your furnace filter. You know it’s dirty! (So dirty!) 🖤

@Qbae

I get a high fever for one full day afterward. 103 point whatever. Sucks. Chills, aches, all the things.

@kel

Mmm…there really is only one word processor I’d want with me on a dessert island. 🍮

I enjoyed Care Bears as a kid so…I can’t imagine Funshine being anything other than female but…yup. Now male.
